Stories are a
wonderful way of engaging with children and opening their eyes to the world!
As
Dr. Suess puts it, “Oh! The places you’ll go!” On 4th Dec, Form 1 got the
opportunity to be a part of an exciting experience through ‘The Dramabaaz
Storytelling Festival’ which was a unique combination of story-telling through
drama, Puppets, music, dance and Paper craft.
Since the start
of the day the excitement was in the air as children were all charged up to
take a day off from the classroom and enter the world of stories . At the
festival they got an opportunity to capture various moments of emotions and
expressions from the stories that were showcased.
Children were
quite taken up by the first act which was Puppet show of ‘A Naughty Fly’. Then
followed a colorful and amazing folk dance performance to which the children
were spell bound. Children also witnessed a one act short play titled ‘The
Dictionary
Salesman’ performed by brilliant little actors. The festival ended
with children being part of puppet making and instrument making workshop and
carried back a token of the same. It was a wonderful experience for the entire
form 1 students as was evident from their chats on their way to back to school.
